So I’m getting ready to pick up a Marlin 1895 SBL next week. This will be my first lever gun and I’m pretty stoked! I don’t plan to do a lot to it, but I do plan on swapping out the trigger. So being my first I’m hoping those who have experience with the WWG, Rangerpoint, and Timney trigger will weigh in and give their thoughts on which is the best? The Timney is twice the cost of the other two, but is it worth it over the others?

Tell me what you think…

I don't have experience with the other two but I have a Wild West Guns trigger in a Marlin 336 Texan and it's absolutely amazing. I wish ai had a trigger pull gauge but I swear it can't be over 3lbs.

Timney is what I’ve used on my customer builds and they feel fantastic. Can’t imagine wanting more out of a lever gun trigger.

You think you're winning this game? You don't even know the God-damned rules. But don't worry, I'm gonna teach 'em to ya..

Are either the WWG, RPP or Jard triggers drop in for pre 1983 Marlins? I know that the Timney is not.
